Henri Cartier-Bresson was one of the great Magnum photographers and along with Robert Capa, David Seymour and George Rodger founded Magnum Photos in the spring of 1947. He was born in France, the eldest child of a wealthy textile manufacturer. He studied oil painting as child, but was later drawn to photography, studying it with his uncle. As an adult he once explained, "I suddenly understood that a photograph could fix eternity in an instant." A full biography is available on his
Wikipedia page.
